Now I'm gonna play ye one o' my favorite songs o' all time--in fact, it's why I left home and am here wi' you grand folks....but boy howdy what I'd do fer a honky-tonk pianer right now...

I'd ride the desert sands
And through the prairie lands
Trying to do what's right
The folks would come to me
They'd say "We need you here"
I'd stay for the night
Oh, I wish I was (oh, oh, oh, oh)
A wild west hero.

Ride the range all the day
Till the first fading light
Be with my western girl
Round the fire, oh so bright
I'd be the Indians' friend
Let them live to be free
Riding in to the
I wish I could be.
